After your welcome cocktail, your crew will sail to the island of Sebayur where you will stop to take in the magnificent nature which surrounds you: including rays, turtles and colorful fish.

DAY 2: Sebayur Keci - Sebayur Besar
After a good breakfast, you will head to Sebayur to anchor in a protected cove. The seabed and wildlife are extraordinarily diverse. A day will probably not be enough to discover everything about this wonderful place. Dinner and last night on board.

DAY 3: Komodo - Pink Beach
It's impossible to visit the Park without going to meet the Komodo dragons. 1,800 of these astonishing specimens live on the island and a trek with the rangers of Komodo National Park will stay in your memory forever. You will head to the sublime sands of Pink Beach, a beach of pink corals where the crystal clear water is the perfect opporunity to snorkel and discover life below the waves. Dinner and overnight on board.

DAY 4: Pink Beach - Manta Point - Siaba
Gourmet breakfast before heading to Manta Point, one of the highlights of the day with a once-in-a-lifetime swim in the company of Manta rays, a harmless but gigantic fish. You will spend the night on the island of Siaba and its secluded cove.

DAY 5: Siaba - Gili Lawa Darat
Once your breakfast is served, your captain will take you to Gili Lawa Darat, a spot where two bays face each other. In the first you will find turtles and an exceptional marine fauna, and the second one looks like a lake where the dolphins come to play around the boat and where, at night you will be met with a spectacular sky of stars. Dinner and a night on board.

DAY 6: Gili Lawa Darat - Crystal Rock - Gili Lawa Laut
Crystal Rock and Gili Lawa Laut will be your next destinations. Here you will encounter every colour, shape and size of fish.
